A whole minute of clapping was nothing to Pavarotti , he still holds the record for most curtain calls which was 165 in Berlin, I believe the applause lasted for an hour and 9 minutes
My favorite opera, based on a play Puccini saw and is set in Rome in June 1800, with the Kingdom of Naples's control of Rome threatened by Napoleon's invasion of Italy. The opera is in three Acts, all beautiful and includes a little torture, murder and underlying love story. There are some of Puccini's best-known arias in this opera. You should watch Recondita Armonia, my favorite piece from an opera (in the first Act). You can see it with the English subtitles. I took the time early in covid to transcribe/arrange the piece for classical guitar. Puccini has a lot of lyrical work that fit well on various instruments. This piece you watched is from a live taping you can get online. I watch it every other year or so...really nice reaction.
This is the last aria from Tosca - In the opera he is about to be executed and sings about how is dies in dispair and has never loved life so much. It was his last performance at the Met and he was very emotional about it. The sad part is Pav knew he was dying also. He performed this aria 60 times and it was always fresh.
This was from the opera - Tosca...they sing and act out the story :) This is one aria from the story...a full opera can be hours long, but singers sometimes just perform some of the more famous arias.
The Maestro is playing Mario Cavaradossi, a painter and Napoleon sympathizer, jailed by King of Naples' guards (who held the city tight) for being "revolutionary" and on the way to firing squad, who reminds his last encounter with his loved one before heading to the gallows. That's why i cry every time i hear this since i was 8...
This is one of the last performances of Pavarotti on the opera stage. His expression is so deep that also his colleague tenor Palcido Domingo (he is conducting this opera called Tosca) applauds. In this scene he plays Cavaradossi, a political prisoner. He knows he will die and here he remembers the first night with his love Tosca.
Composer: Giacomo Puccini The Opera title is TOSCA The Aria is E lucevan le stelle; Normaly at... an opera tells a story... you have arias, following duets (two persons) or choir parts etc. Normaly the people dont interrupt... (with applause) because you interrupt the ongoing of the storry... exept you have an aria siniging as good as "the big P" (Pavarrotti) did... (or perhaps others) and as longer these applaus interruption of the plot is as better the performance of the singer was.... :-)
An opera is basically a play with music. There are musical pieces in the opera called arias, and this is one of these. It is customary to applaud in the middle of the opera after a singer completes an aria, especially a famous one. In fact, sometimes the audience requests that the performer repeat the aria right there on the spot; that's where the call "encore" (French for again, "ancora" in Italian) comes in. Here's some information about the plot of the opera going on in the background (google "tosca" and you can learn all about it): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_lucevan_le_stelle
great to see a reactor that not only reacts to his Nessun dorma . Too many reactors take no risks. If you like to watch a longer,amazing,legendary performance ,look up his "una furtiva lagrima" Thanks
This is my favourite opera song. Not a big opera man. But it's sublime. My friend lives opera. We went on a car journey. He played lost to expand my experience. When this came on I lost it. And I try not to do that in public. Its fabulous. I know this video and what happens after the clapping.
It is Good to expand. One of the saddest things that one can do is to “stay in your lane” to not experience Music in its many forms. I remind 20 or so years ago talking to a few 16 year olds at the restaurant who only, ONLY, listened to “Ozzie” - nothing else!! I looked at them in amazement. “So narrow. So limited.” Hopefully 20 years later, they have grown a little bit. Cheers.
From Puccini's "Tosca". This came on the Metropolitan Opera's Sirius channel when I was driving through Phoenix one night, and I almost had an accident because of the tears in my eyes. "E lucevan le stelle" = "And the stars were shining" Robin Nichols has provided a translation infra.
You should listen to Die Zauberflote (The Magic Flute) by Mozart. Der Holle Rache kochtin meinem Herzen (Queen of the Night's Aria) is probably my favorite aria. Maszella Holzapfel sang is beauifully.
Unfortunately, Pavarotti is not the greatest to have sung this operatic excerpt. That honor goes to Placido Domingo. And, that moment in time was in 1990 at the Three Tenors concert. ua-cam.com/video/1BalPt1E-Yo/v-deo.html
hey guy the text:
And the stars were shining
And the earth was smelling
The garden door was squealing
And a step touched the sand
She came in, fragrant
She fell into my arms
Or sweet kisses, or languid caresses
While I, trembling, unfastened the beautiful forms from the veils
The dream vanished forever...
italian:
E lucevan le stelle
E olezzava la terra
Stridea l'uscio dell'orto
E un passo sfiorava la rena
Entrava ella fragrante
Mi cadea fra le braccia
O dolci baci, o languide carezze
Mentr'io fremente le belle forme disciogliea dai veli
Svanì per sempre il sogno…
what he is singin is an aria of an opera of G. Puccini it is the same composer as "turandot" (the aria "nessun dorma" of it u allready know)

I only listen to rap music but this gave me chills😂

Bro Pavarotti puts me in a unique mystical trance state. Theres really no other feeling like it, aside from maybe Ravi Shankar
The name is OPERA.
Composer: Giacomo Puccini
The Opera title is TOSCA
The Aria is E lucevan le stelle;
Normaly at... an opera tells a story... you have arias, following duets (two persons) or choir parts etc. Normaly the people dont interrupt... (with applause) because you interrupt the ongoing of the storry... exept you have an aria siniging as good as "the big P" (Pavarrotti) did... (or perhaps others) and as longer these applaus interruption of the plot is as better the performance of the singer was.... :-)
You can hear the audience calling out, "Bis! Bis!" meaning "Again!" (like 'encore').

I don't even listen to this genre much but Pavarotti's performances are brilliant.
You asked what the title means. According to Google Translate, E lucevan le stelle translates to "And the stars were shining".

Too many reactors take no risks.
If you like to watch a longer,amazing,legendary performance ,look up his "una furtiva lagrima"

It's from the opera tosca, he's about to get executed...and he is waiting for the end.
The saddest aria.
Non si interrompe mai mentre l'opera è cantata...si ascolta poi la si commenta

Pavarotti la donna e mobile react
Aquí ya le quedaba muy poca voz (comparando con la que tuvo) y se nota mucho.
What the called this?
"OPERA"
Check out Maria Callas Casta Diva

Technically perhaps, but emotionally, not even close.
